FAQ

How are trail priorities established?

Trail priorities are established through information gathering from multiple sources.  Wells County Trails uses public surveys, public meetings, feedback from our elected officials, feedback from our local parks boards, and board member feedback to help craft the priority list.  We then utilize the Wells County Area Plan Commission and the Northeast Indiana Regional Coordinating Council to help map and represent these priorities.  The priority list changes based on these factors, along with the availability of funding and outside assistance.

​

Why are we working on all of these projects at once instead of focusing on just the highest needs?

Wells County Trails' goal is to always have a project in the hopper so that we are ready when funding opportunities arise.  Many of these projects are on different timelines and have different potential funding sources.  That is why we can actively work on these projects in unison.  For example, the Poka-Bache Trail Project, which includes a good portion of the Ossian Linear Parkway, is on a path to look for construction funding starting in 2030.  The Poka-Bache Trail has a focus on regional funding.  The SR 124 trail and other projects are potentially on a much quicker time table, bearing the ability to find adequate funding.
